I voted to reject RFK Jr.'s nomination to HHS.

Chuck Grassley has held public office since the 1950s.
He’s never had a real job or ever done any real kind of work and he’s almost 100 years old.
Conservatives are the epitome of lazy, just good for nothing free loaders.

So, the people who've been putting Bibles in classrooms, the Ten Commandments in courthouses, and legislating away women's rights to their bodies are suddenly worried about the mixing of politics and religion, huh?
